Attached a small patch to top level Makefile.am to include the recently
added diamter data files chargecontrol.xml and TGPPSh.xml
From jaaap Keuter:
I've polished up the README.malloc describing ememified memory management. It's basically the same information, but made a bit more accessable. All this in response to bug 511

new: -D to list interfaces
changed: -i will also accept indices (rather than complete names only)
text copied from the tethereal.pod file
svn path=/trunk/; revision=16793
that if you want to send text to a file, just redirect the standard
output. I've seen at least one message on the Ethereal lists from
somebody who didn't realize that, and I think I've seen more.

this way, the capture prefix will "logically" group the files together and file browsers will also group them
we may want to move the files into a subdir capture later

The attached patch extends the synopsys and adds an 'Examples' chapter to
the editcap documentation.
I've edited this a bit, without the real knowledge :-(, to make it:
a. look better
b. make more sense (at least to me)
svn path=/trunk/; revision=16325
remove Byte(s) from the dropdown list of filesizes, this doesn't make sense
replace 1000 with 1024, as all (modern?) file managers are based on 1024 bytes for a kilobyte (the old KB vs. KiB controversy)

IPv6 addresses. Use "tvb_get_ipv4()" in the WINS Replication dissector,
so that it gets the right answer on little-endian *AND* big-endian
machines.

Makefile.nmake instead of doing our own XCOPYing. Use the "clean-deps"
target when we're done instead of leaving DLLs lying around.
Normalize the use of underscores vs hyphens in the "clean-deps" target.

returned quite a list of files. Add them to MAINTAINERCLEANFILES.
Whitespace changes (replace multiple spaces by TABs, in a few cases this
needed to be done at the beginning of Makefile lines.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=14891
This is very naughty and will cause problems when we have assigned a dissector to a dynamic port using conversation_set_dissector().
To make ethereal handle this case I have changed the try_conversation_dissector() to allow it to fail and return 0, meaning yes there is indeed a protocol registered for this conversation but that protocol rejected this packet.
(which only happens for "new" style dissectors, "old" style dissectors will never reject a packet that way)
When this happens the decode_udp_port() helper will still allow other dissectors to be tried, in the hope that the conversation is now used for some other protocol and thus someone else might be able to decode the packet.
Update SNMP and TFTP dissectors to check that even if there already is a conversation but that conversation does NOT have snmp/tftp registered as the dissector for it, then create a new conversation anyway and attach the proper dissector.
Since ethereal keeps track of which frame number a conversation started in, this actually works really well.

in the plugins subdirectory. This target will copy all plugins to plugins/$(VERSION), thus (t)ethereal will
find and load the plugins when called from within the source tree.
call this target from the main nmake makefile after
installing other dependencies. call it from the nmake makefile
in the doc subdirectory before calling "tethereal -G".
This way "tethereal -G" will recognize the filterable
fields from the plugins, too.

This target will copy all files, mainly dlls, which
are necessary to run (t)ethereal to the source tree.
After copying all necessary dlls to the source tree,
you can run (t)ethereal directly from the source tree.

false if none of them are, not to an integer or slice value with the
only the bits set in both values set.

not the result of dissecting that data.
Note that "-F" applies to the output of "-w", that "-S" says "dissect
and print even if you're doing '-w'", and that "-T" applies to the
dissected output, not the "-w" output.

it serves the same purpose as the register routine in a built-in
dissector, and don't require all dissectors to have one, as they might
just be taps.
Get rid of the stats tree's init routine, as it's just a tap, and as it
doesn't do anything.
Update the idl2eth Python script to generate plugins with register routines.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=13644
Introduce a new init routine for plugins,
which does not take the plugin api table as an
argument and allows etheral to distinguish
between plugins using the old and the new api.
Update README.plugins accordingly
Change all g_warnings() in epan/plugins.c to report_failue().
On windows we do not have a log console open while
loading the plugins, because a log console cannot be opened before the prefs have been read. Thus g_warnings()
does not work for reporting problems with plugins.

(it's now in an "ethereal" directory, so there's no need for it to have
a name that distinguishes it from files for other programs) - if it's
not found as "preferences", try "ethereal.conf" for compatibility - and
update the man pages appropriately.
Fix a typo in the section color filters (the file name is "colorfilters",
not "color filters").

files. Do this with GENERATED_HEADER_FILES, GENERATED_C_FILES, and
GENERATED_FILES macros in Makefile.common files, along the lines of what
wiretap/Makefile.common has.
Clean up "*~" files with "make clean" rather than only "make distclean"
in some additional places.
Add "maintainer-clean" rules to the Makefile.nmake files, paralelling
the ones in the automake-generated Makefile.in files, using the
GENERATED_FILES macros from Makefile.common files. In some cases, move
the cleanup of files from "make distclean" to "make maintainer-clean",
and in other cases, put in a comment indicating why we're not doing that
(because some files that are distributed in the source tarballs, namely
Flex output, were built with a UN*X Flex and won't compile on Windows,
so we get rid of them with "make distclean" so you can clean up stuff
that *has* to be re-generated for Windows).
Clean up some *CLEANFILES definitions - get rid of ones that no longer
apply as files were moved or that add to the definition a name that's
already there.

integers.
Make FT_INT64 and FT_UINT64 add numerical values, rather than byte-array
values, to the protocol tree, and add routines to add specified 64-bit
integer values to the protocol tree.
Use those routines in the RSVP dissector.

Note in the manual that you can't use capture filters when reading a
capture file, and that read filters might require too much CPU when
doing a live capture.

it specially, otherwise you put Ethereal at risk of crashing with bad

they have LF at the end of the line on UN*X and CR/LF on Windows;
hopefully this means that if a CR/LF version is checked in on Windows,
the CRs will be stripped so that they show up only when checked out on
Windows, not on UN*X.

Talk about packet details rather than the protocol tree, just as we do in
the Ethereal manual page.

use to format 64-bit integers.
Fix the RSVP dissector to use that rather than hardcoding "%ll" in.
Remove the "only if G_HAVE_GINT64 is defined" bit from the discussion of
64-bit integers - we're too dependent on having them to support
compilers that don't have a 64-bit integral data type. Do, however,
note that neither "long" nor "long long" are acceptable, and also note
that you shouldn't assume "%ll" does the trick for printing them.

and not writing to another capture file, for use with "-z" options.
Note that "-z proto" *doesn't* print statistics at the end - it modifies
the packet summary output.
Note that on at least some BSDs the "status" character is set to "off"
by default, so you have to set it explicitly in order to be able to ^T
an application such as Tethereal.

convenient to put into a command line (no capital letters, no spaces to
require quotes), and one that's a detailed description for use in the
UI. Allow either of them in the preferences file or "-o" option; use
the detailed description in the UI, and also use it when writing the
preferences out, so that the preference will be readable by older
versions of Ethereal (assuming the preference existed in that version).
Update "README.developer" to give more detail about an enum_val_t (and
to put the _t in), and to give a more detailed description of the
"radio_buttons" argument to "prefs_register_enum_preference()".
